For this purpose, we propose simple and efficient resource allocation schemes which are based on 2-dimensional resource partitioning in frequency and time domain. Basically, frequency-domain partitioning is determined by degree of frequency diversity and time-domain partitioning is determined by degree of multiplexing which is number of users to be served in a sub-channel of a frame. Our approach is aimed at maximizing the delay constrained throughput by choosing the appropriate degree of multiplexing for a given degree of frequency diversity. We investigate the effect of degree-of-multiplexing and frequency diversity on delay QoS performance of OFDMA system by analyzing the effective capacity, and then develop an approach to finding the optimal degree of multiplexing by the asymptotic approximation.","PeriodicalId":402292,"journal":{"name":"2010 16th Asia-Pacific Conference on Communications (APCC)","volume":"63 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124095025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Guaranteed packet delivery performance can be ensured by careful selection of error free links, quick recovery from packet losses, and avoidance of overloaded relay sensor nodes. Due to limited resources of individual senor nodes, there is usually a trade-off between energy spending for packets transmissions and the appropriate level of reliability. Since link failures and packet losses are unavoidable, sensor networks may tolerate a certain level of reliability without significantly affecting packets delivery performance and data aggregation accuracy in favor of efficient energy consumption. However a certain degree of reliability is needed, especially when hop count increases between source sensor nodes and the base station as a single lost packet may result in loss of a large amount of aggregated data along longer hops. An effective solution is to jointly make a trade-off between energy, reliability, cost, and agility while improving packet delivery, maintaining low packet error ratio, minimizing unnecessary packets transmissions, and adaptively reducing control traffic in favor of high success reception ratios of representative data packets. Based on this approach, the proposed routing protocol can achieve moderate energy consumption and high packet delivery ratio even with high link failure rates. The proposed routing protocol was experimentally investigated on a testbed of Crossbow's TelosB motes and proven to be more robust and energy efficient than the current implementation of TinyOS2.x MultihopLQI.","PeriodicalId":402292,"journal":{"name":"2010 16th Asia-Pacific Conference on Communications (APCC)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124197059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) prominently provides solid potential for wireless sensor network security due to its small key size and its high security strength. However, there is a urgent need to reduce key calculation time to satisfy the full range of potential applications, in particularly for those applications involved wireless sensor networks (WSN). It is well known that scalar multiplication operation in ECC accounts for about 80% of key calculation time on wireless sensor network motes. In this paper we present a fuzzy controller for a dynamic window sizing to allow the calculation processing to run under optimum conditions by balanced case allocating available RAM and ROM at the sensor node within a wireless sensor network. The whole quality of Service (QoS) is improved, in particular the power consuming is more efficiently.

Using the property of uplink-downlink duality, the original DPC-based MIMO relay system is first converted to a dual system with a decision feedback equalizer (DFE) at the destination. Then we jointly optimize the source and relay matrices of the dual system. Finally the optimal source and relay matrices of the DPC-based system are obtained by exploiting the link between the source, relay, and destination matrices of the original and dual MIMO relay systems.

Furthermore, it gathers data from an environment and does not only transfer the data to destinations such as sinks but also store the data in its storage. Therefore, just one node failure can cause malfunctions of various facilities of a WSN. So far, many schemes are proposed to overcome such malfunctions, however, most of them give less consideration to storage-role of nodes, that is, to reserve data safely. Besides, even schemes paying attention to storage-role of nodes are based on impractical assumptions or are suitable to particular cases. In this paper, first, we investigate the data preserving methods of existing schemes and their limitations. Then, we suggest a multiple backup scheme as a solution to overcome such limitations and considering factors for developing a new backup scheme. The proposed scheme can safely preserves data in spite of node failures and consumes reasonable energy.

FDL buffers with longer common difference of arithmetic-series length can perform the shaping function and enhance network throughput, even though FDL buffer can only provide a discrete amount of delay time and limited buffering capacity.

Each node in a WSN consists of three subsystems: the sensor subsystem which senses the environment, the processing subsystem which performs local computations on the sensed data, and the communication subsystem which is responsible for message exchange with neighboring sensor nodes. While an individual sensor node has limited sensing region, processing power, and energy, networking a large number of sensor nodes give rise to a robust, reliable, and accurate sensor network covering a wide region. Thus, routing in WSNs is a very important issue. This paper presents a query-based routing protocol for a WSN that provides different levels of Quality of Service (QoS): energy-efficiency, reliability, low latency and fault-tolerance-under different application scenarios. The algorithm has low computational complexity but can dynamically guarantee different QoS support depending on the requirement of the applications. The novelty of the proposed algorithm is its ability to provide multiple QoS support without reconfiguration and redeployment of the sensor nodes. The algorithm is implemented in network simulator ns-2 and its performance has been evaluated. The results show that the algorithm is more efficient than some of the currently existing routing algorithms for WSNs.","PeriodicalId":402292,"journal":{"name":"2010 16th Asia-Pacific Conference on Communications (APCC)","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130429861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A terrestrial node with two directional antennas can be used between balloon nodes to replace an inter-balloon link with two balloon-terrestrial links. The communication distance of the terrestrial-balloon link can be extended with better communication quality. We performed experiments of communication quality measurement in Niigata University campus area from August to September in 2009.
